About the Item

This simple and elegant still life depicts a potted Geranium and a bowl of Oranges on a table decorated with a vase and a tablecloth. Clearly, the artist chose objets close to her heart - and close at hand - to create a simple, warm and feminine display of domesticity. Dating from 1934, this is a work by Elisabeth Pohlenz-Mostar (1904-1986) , a member of the Association of Berlin Woman Artists. She exhibited at the Great Berlin Art Exhibition, one of the the key events of the visual arts scene in Germany between 1893 and 1969. The painting comes from the collection of Marleen Lange who lived between Berlin and Madeira. Signed and dated at the upper right, our oil on canvas measures 41 x 51 cm and is presented in its original wooden frame. The overall framed size is 47 x 56.5 cm.

Lilac flowers at the door, 1901 uplifting floral still life large oil on canvas
Located in Norwich, GB
Here is a painting that will lift you - one feels happy every time one looks at it. It is such a lovely, unusual twist to the theme of the floral still life: here we have flowers, not in a vase, but attached to a wooden front door. I wonder if the artist did this with actual flowers, perhaps for a sweetheart, and then decided to paint the scene? At any rate: who wouldn't want to come home to find a large bunch of glorious lilac as they come home? The artist is Emile Baudoux (1850 -1929), who studied with Humbert and Cabanel. Paris-born, he liked to work in Normandy, where he had his studio. He exhibited his work at the "Salon des Artistes Français" until 1927, where he obtained a gold medal in 1910. The important oil on canvas presented here, dating from 1901, may have been shown at the Salon, as it bears an exhibition number "30" at the upper right of the canvas. It is signed and dated at the lower left as seen in the photos. Measuring 81 x 60 cm, the overall size including its original large oak frame...

Here is your chance to have your own private chapel with devotional objets and saint figures - in the form of this lovely painting by Joseph Bergès (1878-1956). Berges was born in the South East of France in the Pyrenees, not far from the Spanish border. After studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Toulouse, he was accepted at the Paris Academy. However, although his career took him to Paris, a remained very much attached to his homeland, a pious, rustic area with many chapel such as the one he portrayed here. Having studied with the Masters Eugène Cormon and Léon Bonnat , Bergès exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1907.
